Weekend Gaming Lineup: What the Industry Is Playing Right Now
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
The Citadel team shares their weekend gaming plans, ranging from classic strategy and live-service updates to hardware troubleshooting and weekend getaways.
As September speeds past us and October looms on the horizon, the weekend is finally here, offering a much-needed break from the daily grind. Across our editorial team, personal schedules and hardware hiccups are dictating our gaming plans, but the lineup remains as diverse as the modern gaming landscape itself. From retro tactical classics to intense squad shooters, everyone is squeezing in digital downtime wherever they can.
Some of us are embracing slower, more deliberate pacing. Jeremy is diving into top-down maps with a relaxed playthrough of Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen, balancing family commitments with classic strategy. Meanwhile, James is mopping up side content in Control Resonant before brushing up on his Warhammer 40,000: Darktide skills ahead of the upcoming seasonal boss drop on September 29th, proving that live-service updates continue to dictate our weekly schedules.
Hardware struggles are universal, of course, as Ollie is currently knee-deep in PC troubleshooting while trying to get back to Wardogs. Others are stepping away from screens entirely for family birthdays and movie nights, but portable setups and cloud saves are always waiting for Sunday night sessions. As Rock Paper Shotgun's editorial team shared their weekend plans, the real question turns to the community. Jump into the comments and let us know what is locked and loaded in your own playlists this weekend.
